Pineapple princes: The Sunday photo quiz

You may not have visited this upscale resort in Hawai’i, but the pineapple details in the balcony railings (pictured below) give an important clue to its location. The oceanfront resort was developed by a company that has “pineapple” in its name as well as in its portfolio — at least until Christmas 2009.

That’s when the firm’s pineapple fields near the resort ostensibly had their last harvest, ending a century of growing the prickly fruit on the island — and leaving only one other significant pineapple grower in the state. But some sweet news soon followed the harvest: A group of former executives saw gold in them thar fields, and formed a new company that will put about a third of the pineapple fields back into production.

Today’s quiz asks: What is the name of this resort and which island is it on? Bonus points if you know where in Hawai’i is the biggest remaining pineapple grower, or have Hawai’i pineapple memories and/or photos to share.

Please e-mail your answers to hawaii.insider@gmail.com and include your name and mailing address to be considered for a small Hawai’i-themed prize. The deadline is noon Pacific time on Monday, Jan. 25; the answers and more about the fate of Hawai’i pineapple will be revealed later this week.

Pineapples aren’t just an architectural detail here — they were part of the income stream.
